feat(chat): collapsible turn sections, auto-folded on a new turn#40

Conversation
A long conversation used to be one unbroken wall of fully-expanded turns. Each turn's strip now discloses/hides its own body; only the newest turn opens by default, a turn the user has explicitly opened or closed stays that way across new turns, and jumping to a turn via the rail or search force-opens it. Expand-all/collapse-all lives in the turn index header. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Pull request overview
Implements per-turn collapsing/expanding in the chat transcript, wiring fold state through ChatView into the transcript (MessageList) and navigation (TurnIndex) so older turns auto-fold when a new turn starts, while preserving per-turn actions and deep-link/jump behavior.
Changes:
- Add a disclosure control to
TurnStripand render each turn body as a hideable unit inMessageList. - Introduce fold-state management in
ChatView(default: only newest open; user overrides persist) and “expand all / collapse all” hooks forTurnIndex. - Add unit/integration tests covering fold defaults and
isTurnOpenbehavior.

…l /clear (v5.1.2) (#37) * chore: bump version to 5.1.2 * feat(chat): let users override a conversation's model, independent of profile default (#39) Adds a per-conversation model override so any chat session can switch or type a custom model at any time, regardless of whether the underlying runtime already supports it. Persisted on the session (mirrors the chatBypassPermissions pattern), applied via a three-tier fallback (live adapter.setModel -> best-effort /model slash command -> saved for next launch), and always beats the runtime profile's default for that conversation only. Composer's model chip becomes an always-enabled combobox with free-text entry and honest per-outcome feedback, replacing the old dead-end disabled state. Closes #38 Co-authored-by: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * feat(chat): collapsible turn sections, auto-folded on a new turn (#34) (#40) A long conversation used to be one unbroken wall of fully-expanded turns. Each turn's strip now discloses/hides its own body; only the newest turn opens by default, a turn the user has explicitly opened or closed stays that way across new turns, and jumping to a turn via the rail or search force-opens it. Expand-all/collapse-all lives in the turn index header. Co-authored-by: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(chat): show Claude's slash commands from the moment a session opens (#41) Claude's CLI does not report `slash_commands` until it has processed a first turn's `system/init`, which only arrives after the first message is written to its stdin. The chat session spawns the process as soon as a chat is opened, well before any message is sent, so the command menu and its composer button stayed empty — looking broken — until a throwaway message unlocked them. The adapter now advertises a static baseline built from this app's own table of Claude's built-in commands as soon as it starts, so the menu and button are populated immediately. The real `init` list — including any project or plugin commands — still arrives with the first turn and replaces this baseline outright, exactly as before. ACP runtimes (kimi, omp) already report commands during their handshake, before any message is sent, so they were never affected. codex, grok and pi have no command support at all; the composer already hides the button entirely rather than showing an empty menu, which is the honest behavior for a runtime that offers none. Closes #30 Co-authored-by: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(chat): make /clear and /new actually reset the conversation (#47) `/clear` and `/new` forwarded their text to the still-running agent process like any other message, then only added a cosmetic marker that hid prior messages in the UI. The next message sent it right back into the same process, so the agent kept whatever context it already had — the reset never really happened, only its display did. Route clearing commands through the same restart path a manual "start fresh" relaunch already uses: stop the live adapter and start a new one with no resume id, so the next turn talks to a process that was never handed the prior conversation. This also fixes the id persisted for later reconnects, so a rejoin can't resurrect it either. Fixes #43 Co-authored-by: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(chat): show the answer as it streams, and keep a model override across /clear (#49) Five defects introduced by the four PRs already merged onto the 5.1.2 branch. Each one's own tests passed; all but one lived where two of them met. The chat stopped rendering. MessageList looked messages up in a map memoised on the messages array, but the transcript appends to that array in place, so its identity never changes: the map was built once at mount and every message after it resolved to nothing. The strips above kept ticking while the bodies stayed empty, and reloading "fixed" it because reloading replaces the array. Keyed on the transcript version instead, which is the cadence the neighbouring memo already used — the list still does not re-render per token. A model override no longer survives /clear. The restart replays the options the session was launched with, and the model is the one thing in them that can change while the session is alive, so the conversation quietly went back to the model it opened with after the browser had been told the switch applied. The choice now reaches those options too, by either door: the picker, and a /model typed straight into the composer, which was forwarded untouched and hit the same reversion. A collapsed turn's title escaped its bar. It set neither a size nor nowrap while every sibling in that fixed-height row sets both, so it inherited the page default and wrapped — and without nowrap the ellipsis was inert. An override could not be undone. The server had a "cleared" path, message and all, that nothing in the UI could reach: the text field refuses to submit empty and every listed model carries a name. A typo therefore stayed in force for every later launch of that conversation. Model names are now capped and stripped of control characters, which would otherwise ride into the best-effort /model turn as extra lines. The browser checks gated nothing: npm test runs only the unit suite, and the runner exited 0 when Chrome was absent. With the rendering bug restored, npm test passes 1357/1357 while the browser check fails. They now run in CI and refuse to skip there. Their fixture also grew a second turn, without which no turn is ever collapsed and the broken title was never rendered at all. Every fix has a test confirmed to fail against the unfixed code.
